Twenty illegal immigrants trying to enter the United States illegally by boat were arrested off a California beach on Tuesday morning, authorities said.
The U.S. Border Patrol said the 17 men and three women, all from Mexico, were rounded up after they came ashore at Calafia State Beach in San Clemente, Southern California.
When the small craft the immigrants were riding in landed, the occupants attempted to flee, the patrol said.
A 36-year-old woman broke her leg after jumping from the boat and was taken to a hospital for treatment. The rest of the group were taken to a Border Patrol station for processing, according to a statement from the U.S. Border Patrol in San Diego. - pna
